Summary
Princess Zelda is locked in the castle with Ganon for 100 years. They’re both each other's worst nightmare for a roommate. They watch Link’s antics in the outside world like reality TV, roasting each other for their perceived failures where the ‘Hero of Hyrule’ is concerned: Ganon for his failure to defeat this idiot, and Zelda for being head over heels in love with him. (Which she most definitely is not.)
That’s it. That’s the whole fic.
A short intermission sequel to The Gentle Persuasion of Sugar.

Summary
What if you had the chance to walk into your past and change everything?
When a battle with the baddie of the week becomes a Master Emerald-sized problem, Shadow and Sonic are in the heart of it. Now able to transport more than just sandwiches with his portals, the Sandomancer uses his newfound power to send Shadow on a dive through reality. Sonic attempts to save him and gets pulled along for the ride. They find themselves in a place that’s both familiar and completely foreign: Space Colony ARK, as it stood fifty years ago. As alarm bells start to ring, there’s no mistaking the date. Shadow’s priority is to get the hell out as soon as possible, and survive being stuck with Sonic for company, until he comes across a familiar sight. A black and red hedgehog running with a girl he knows like his own heartbeat.
Chaos, they’re so young.
Priorities change, and so does everything else.

Summary
BotW Modern AU, Zelink. He’s a self-made world-class chef. She’s a doctoral student at Lanayru University studying Archaeotechnology. A chance meeting between these perfect strangers leads to a collision of worlds and ideals—and the intersection of matters of the mind and matters of the heart is a lot messier than Zelda would like.
